Kill Clover!
Hi, The clover is flourishing in my yard, particularly backyard. I used to be able to control them with Scott Plus 2 (early spring and late fall). However, this time it did not seem work. I also sprayed with those 1 gallon B-Gon (sp?) and it made the clover cover yellowish, but not dead. Is there anything I can buy that will kill that weed? Or I'd better call some landscapers? I am in Maryland, BTW. Frustrating |

I am very familiar w/ clover though. With most of the weed sprays you can safely reapply in 2 weeks. Maybe a second application would help. Peter H |

I can remember my Dad agonizing about how much white clover to add to the grass seed he was buying. Then we invented broad-leaf weed killers, and clover was killed. Now we think of clover as an evil weed. |

Don't know any Helgas. "The" is a family name passed down for generations. I'm a distant relative of Winnie The Pooh and Atilla The Hun and perhaps Ivan The Terrible but I can't quite trace the link. |
